Ok, I will give MLVFS another go and report back if anything goes wrong. Thanks.

Hi, could someone point me in the right direction regarding the best MLV converter.

I am still using MLV Mystic as it is dead solid and MLVFS is not as reliable but I see new converters mentioned all the time. What is everyone's new favourite?

ideally
- Resolve embedded audio
- Mac compatible
- GUI

thanks

Bumping up this thread to see whether there have been any updates? I have used the latest night build and used MLV Mystic but the audio still does not sync in Resolve..
#4
I have been off forum for a while - has there been any progress with identifying the source of pink glitches and whether it has been solved?

I have downgraded to the old 2014 version and that works flawlessly so far.

Raw Video / Re: Pink flashes during Raw on 5d2
March 23, 2016, 11:17:39 AM
I am another one to report pink frames with global draw turned on.

5D3, trying both 1.1.3 and 1.2.3 and pink frames appear mainly when shooting 50fps.
#6
I am switching to 50fps 720p in Canon menu and it is still happening.

MLV_lite does not have sound - I guess I could go back to RAW in that case..

All I want is

no failed frames
sound
global draw on

at whatever resolution it can keep up.
#7
Turning off global draws in 50fps means no way of framing the shot, no focus peak, no information about anything. So that is not an option either..
#8
Hmm, so is there any consensus on what is causing this issue and how we can avoid it? For me it is almost a deal breaker with currently almost every third take having corrupt frames.
#9
itsDPmikey: That nightly is no longer available, any chance you could upload it here? Thanks
#10
Any more tips how to solve pink DNGs? Turning off global draw is not great as you lose a lot of important information. It makes me nervous that the good take might be ruined by it..

Also, with the latest ML nightly build, when shooting MLV, only few resolution options are available, only 1600x900 and then 1920x1080 - any reason why that is? I love tweaking the resolution and find the one that you can just keep running fine.

Thanks

Using RAW module gives me smuch longer running time.

50fps at 1792x606px

MLV: 22s
RAW 40s

I am another one to report pink glitchy DNGs - I mostly get them when shooting 50fps - I almost never get them with 25fps. I have standard setup, 5D3, 113, KB 128 GB 1066x - I have now reformatted them to exFat, they were formatted to Mac OS Journaled - I can already push 50fps with higher framerate.

Unrelated to this I have one other problem - when shooting 50fps, the framing window on my screen does not correspond with the selected resolution and ratio - the displayed frame is way more squarish than it should be. And I am not talking about squeezed footage that needs to be stretched in post. I have asked friends and they reported the same thing - any workarounds?
#13
Yes, recording long sequences to CF card, no spanning, ML is run from SD card.

Can you recommend me any other good converters? I vaguely remember seeing glitches even on the screen while recording so still think it occurs while recording.
#14
Well, turning off focus peaking and global draw would mean losing two pretty esential functions.

How do you test the card in ML?
#15
Hi everyone,

I was hoping you could me with following glitches I get fairly often - they last for 1,2 frames and happen fairly often. Is that something I can tackle? I use 5D3 latest nightly build, Komputerbay 1066x 128GB cards and then process files with MysticMLV and After Effects to Prores.

I have tested MLVMystic nad Rawmagic and both produce same glitch so I suspect it happens while recording.

Thanks for any suggestions, I could not find a similar topic on here.

Thanks for your reply. The huge Canon ecosystem + ability to shoot RAW is just perfect. Let's see.

General Chat / Canon 5D4 port
February 26, 2015, 11:22:15 AM
Dear magiclantern team,

I am all aware 5D4 is due in couple of months and until it's out you cannot give any definite answers but assuming 5D4 will stay at its current position within Canon hierarchy, do you see yourself porting ML to it? With your recent efforts towards the new Apertus camera I was wondering whether this might be the end for Canon-ML era? I know there is a lot to speculate but shooting into RAW became absolutely essential for me (thanks so much for your work) and I will have to be upgrading my camera this year. I was hoping I could get just fairly general idea where you guys are standing currently.

Thanks and once again, you turned my 5D2 into a completely new beast.

Why don't you give Resolve 11 a try before deciding that you're not interested in working with it? The new version gives you a great deal of tweaking at the raw stage that might get you closer to where you need to be than you realize. I am consistently amazed at how little people seem to value time, but the reality is that if you use a post workflow that is insanely slow, it will make you want to use raw and shoot footage less.

Will give it a try. Having been using ACR for so many years that it saves me loads of time. Just had to schedule overnight encoding and am slightly worried my laptop is under a lot of strain that way. Thanks for the tips.

Only as a guide and quick test on Resolve 11 I get 36fps on mac encoding to ProRes any flavour which includes using force full quality resizing from 1280x544 (550D DNG's) to 1920x1080 letterboxed and full quality debayer both at encode time. 15fps on mac using same settings but going to QT h264. I'd encode without letterbox really.

....

Thanks for all this, I know Resolve is so much faster but coming from photography background I love flexibility and all various tweaks that you can run under ACR. Very essential for my workflow as I basically grade the files straight at the beginning. I leave only minor color and contrast tweaks to unify the final footage.

Looks I will have to keep my computer render footage overnight for any future filming. Shame really.

Point taken, thanks.

So in order to bypass long rendering times I can edit directly dng sequences and render only the final cut. Premiere CC only on a computer with dedicated GPU? Very HDD space demanding at the moment if you are working on multiple projects and probably not convenient for me. Shame encoding of these sequences still takes so much time.

Something it's no fine in that configurations.

My MBP setup:

i7 2Ghz
16 GB 1333 MHz RAM
footage loaded from an external drive and saved on SSD drive
ML raw footage converted to 422 Prores ---> 1fps encoding

(correction) because of the new cdng-modul in premiere cc its done by hardware(gpu) instead of "slow" ACR-cpu-consuming-way.

So from reading this thread, Premiere (not AE) has GPU-supported encoding and should thus run faster? What are the usual speeds people achieve using ACR? I am deciding whether to invest into a desktop computer with a dedicated graphic card.

Is there any way to make rendering faster? Or is everyone else (who's using ACR) rendering at 1fps?

Raw Video Postprocessing / GPU/CUDA acceleration
August 08, 2014, 12:43:18 PM
Hey everyone,

I wanted to clarify couple of facts regarding AE accelerated rendering when using one of their newer supported graphic cards. I am currently rendering dng sequences into Prores files on MBP and framerate is around 1fps which makes it very slow. Is there any reasonable difference between that and having a dedicated graphics card? Is it worth investing into faster cards or not as much?

Thanks
